09:16 AMI am new to this, I wanted to implement search and filtering functions in one of our projects. I noticed that you have MongoDb integration for typesense, but I thought that mongodb has their own atlas search engine. What are the differences when using typesense as opposed to querying from mongodb, is it easier to implement, faster etc?

11:02 AMa) Typesense solves both the front end and back end parts of the search problem. Our integration with instantsearch.js will allow you to quickly build search experiences.
b) Simplicity: Typesense takes care of solving most common search use cases out of the box (e.g. typo correction, faceting etc.) while Mongo requires knowing some aspects of the underlying Lucene engine that Mongo uses or the DSL.
